What the FDA did is irrelevant. Read the first word of the title.
> Yes I'm trying to shift the focus to the fact that we need to control what's being sold to be put into youth's bodies. I don't think that's so far off subject.
Don’t shift it from seeing if the overall practice has health issues to just focus on what specific products have issues. That can come separately.

> why was this the device they chose to use for the study anyway?
Without looking, I’m guessing they just went with the popular choice that everyone is aware of.
> Aren't those illegal now or something?
No

You’re trying to shift the focus. They chose a popular brand. The study isn’t just looking at the effects on children. Those ones would be a follow up study.

No they aren’t. “Inaccurate” doesn’t deal with context alone. It’s binary in saying it is accurate or not, on a spectrum of how inaccurate/accurate it is. If stats show that X does Y if Z is present, it is not inaccurate to say X does Y. It’s misleading though because the entire context isn’t there, but it is factually correct.

A major loophole. I’m willing to bet most of the things that people call misinformation aren’t straight up lies, but just cherry picked information.

So misleading and cherry-picked information is fine so long as it is true (but leaving out context)?

Spending time in prison will just give him plenty of spare time to learn where the major blood vessels are so he doesn’t miss again. That’s the danger that will come with more prison.

Plenty of people in poor neighborhoods drive bmws. It’s either them wasting all their money on that one thing or they are driving an ancient model.
